Are there no low-level commands to access the stored cyphertext?
- wmf 14y agoAFAIK no. If the drive hasn't been unlocked with the proper keys it just refuses any reads/writes.
- snaky 14y agoIf that so, how could you boot from such drive?
- Stratoscope 14y agoYou have to enter the hard drive password when you boot. On my ThinkPads, I set the power-on password and the hard drive passwords all the same. Then I enter the power-on password and it feeds that password to all the hard drives too. (I have three SSDs in my W520.)
